The aim of this article is to study time dependent rotating single-wall electrically conducting carbon nanotubes with aqueous suspensions under the influence of nonlinear thermal radiation in a permeable medium. The impact of viscous dissipation is taken into account. The basic governing equations, which are in the form of partial differential equations (PDEs), are transformed to a set of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) suitable for transformations. The homotopy analysis method (HAM) is applied for the solution. The effect of numerous parameters on the temperature and velocity fields is explanation by graphs. Furthermore, the action of significant parameters on the mass transportation and the rates of fiction factor are determined and discussed by plots in detail. The boundary layer thickness was reduced by a greater rotation rate parameter in our established simulations. Moreover, velocity and temperature profiles decreased with increases of the unsteadiness parameter. The action of radiation phenomena acts as a source of energy to the fluid system. For a greater rotation parameter value, the thickness of the thermal boundary layer decreases. The unsteadiness parameter rises with velocity and the temperature profile decreases. Higher value of augments the strength of frictional force within a liquid motion. For greater and ; the heat transfer rate rises. Temperature profile reduces by rising values of .

Our motive is to examine the impact of thermal radiation and suction or injection with viscous dissipation on an MHD boundary layer flow past a vertical porous stretched sheet immersed in a porous medium. The set of the flow equations is converted into a set of non-linear ordinary differential equations by using similarity transformation. We use Runge Kutta method and shooting technique in MATLAB Package to solve the set of equations. The impact of non-dimensional physical parameters on flow profiles is analysed and depicted in graphs. We observe the influence of non-dimensional physical quantities on the Nusselt number, the Sherwood number, and skin friction and presented in tables. A comparison of the obtained numerical results with existing results in a limiting sense is also presented. We enhance radiation to observe the deceleration of fluid velocity and temperature profile for both suction and injection. While enhancing porosity parameter accelerates velocity whereas decelerates temperature profile. As the heat source parameter increases, the temperature of the fluid decreases for both suction and injection, it has been found. With the increasing values of the radiation parameter, the skin friction and heat transfer rate decreases. Increasing magnetic parameter decelerates the skin friction, Nusselt number, and Sherwood number.

AbstractPresent exploration discusses the combined effect of viscous dissipation and Joule heating on three dimensional flow and heat transfer of a Jeffrey nanofluid in the presence of nonlinear thermal radiation. Here the flow is generated over bidirectional stretching sheet in the presence of applied magnetic field by accounting thermophoresis and Brownian motion of nanoparticles. Suitable similarity transformations are employed to reduce the governing partial differential equations into coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations. These nonlinear ordinary differential equations are solved numerically by using the Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg fourth–fifth order method with shooting technique. Graphically results are presented and discussed for various parameters. Validation of the current method is proved by comparing our results with the existing results under limiting situations. It can be concluded that combined effect of Joule and viscous heating increases the temperature profile and thermal boundary layer thickness.

In this article, MHD flow of silver/water nanofluid past a stretched cylinder under the impact of thermal radiation with chemical reaction and slip condition is studied. The impact of Soret and Dufour effect is also analyzed during this flow. The uniqueness of the given problem is enlarged with the insertion of variable magnetic field, free stream velocity, thermal slip condition, and nonlinear thermal radiation. The PDEs are converted to ODEs by using suitable similarity transformation. The nonlinear system of ODEs is solved by applying convergent homotopy analysis method (HAM). The velocity, temperature, and concentration profiles for the free stream and at the plate are discussed through graphs and numerical tables. It is found that velocity field reduces, while the temperature profile rises for the increasing values of magnetic parameter. It is examined that effects of curvature on frication factor are increasing. Furthermore, temperature profile increases for greater Brownian motion and thermophoresis parameters. Transfer of heat enhances decreasing the radius of the cylinder also with heat generation parameter. The skin friction can be reduced by enhancing free stream and wall stretching velocities ratio. Velocity profile of the flow can be controlled by enhancing velocity slip and magnetic field.

The impact of nonlinear thermal radiations rotating with the augmentation of heat transfer flow of time-dependent single-walled carbon nanotubes is investigated. Nanofluid flow is induced by a shrinking sheet within the rotating system. The impact of viscous dissipation is taken into account. Nanofluid flow is assumed to be electrically conducting. Similarity transformations are applied to transform PDEs (partial differential equations) into ODEs (ordinary differential equations). Transformed equations are solved by the homotopy analysis method (HAM). The radiative source term is involved in the energy equation. For entropy generation, the second law of thermodynamics is applied. The Bejan number represents the current investigation of non-dimensional entropy generation due to heat transfer and fluid friction. The results obtained indicate that the thickness of the boundary layer decreases for greater values of the rotation parameter. Moreover, the unsteadiness parameter decreases the temperature profile and increases the velocity field. Skin friction and the Nusselt number are also physically and numerically analyzed.

Abstract Important physical models involving boundary layer occur in almost all internal and external aerodynamic formations. For many of these, the flow outside the boundary layer region may be determined into a large principal component and a small crosswise velocity. In this article, three-dimensional boundary-layer flow over a curved surface is treated for nanofluid under such a simplification. Based on strong thermal conductivity we have considered two same kinds but different shaped nanoparticle namely: Single Wall Carbon Nanotubes (SWCNT) and Multiple Wall Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNT) which are incorporated within the base fluid water. Mathematical model is constructed under the constraint of defined geometry and then transformed into the system of ordinary differential equations. These equations are solved numerically with the help of Runge Kutta (R-K) method with shooting technique. Influences of each physical parameter on velocity and temperature distribution are described through graphs. To analyze the drag and heat transfer at the surface we have plotted the skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number. Flow behavior along the stream wise and cross direction is visualized through stream lines. It is found that viscous dissipation has same increasing effects along both x- and z-directions for temperature profile however, SWCNTs have comparatively higher skin friction and heat transfer rate at the surface as compare to the MWNTs.

The main aim of this work was the investigation of the possibility of replacing the heavy metallic meshes applied onto the composite structure in airplanes for lightning strike protection with a thin film of Tuball single-wall carbon nanotubes in the form of ultra-light, conductive paper. The Tuball paper studied contained 75 wt% or 90 wt% of carbon nanotubes and was applied on the top of carbon fibre reinforced polymer before fabrication of flat panels. First, the electrical conductivity, impact resistance and thermo-mechanical properties of modified laminates were measured and compared with the reference values. Then, flat panels with selected Tuball paper, expanded copper foil and reference panels were fabricated for lightning strike tests. The effectiveness of lightning strike protection was evaluated by using the ultrasonic phased-array technique. It was found that the introduction of Tuball paper on the laminates surface improved both the surface and the volume electrical conductivity by 8800% and 300%, respectively. The impact resistance was tested in two directions, perpendicular and parallel to the carbon fibres, and the values increased by 9.8% and 44%, respectively. The dynamic thermo-mechanical analysis showed higher stiffness and a slight increase in glass transition temperature of the modified laminates. Ultrasonic investigation after lightning strike tests showed that the effectiveness of Tuball paper is comparable to expanded copper foil.

This article is focused on Maxwell ferromagnetic fluid and heat transport characteristics under the impact of magnetic field generated due to dipole field. The viscous dissipation and heat generation/absorption are also taken into account. Flow here is instigated by linearly stretchable surface, which is assumed to be permeable. Also description of magneto-thermo-mechanical (ferrohydrodynamic) interaction elaborates the fluid motion as compared to hydrodynamic case. Problem is modeled using continuity, momentum and heat transport equation. To implement the numerical procedure, firstly we transform the partial differential equations (PDEs) into ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by applying similarity approach, secondly resulting boundary value problem (BVP) is transformed into an initial value problem (IVP). Then resulting set of non-linear differentials equations is solved computationally with the aid of Runge–Kutta scheme with shooting algorithm using MATLAB. The flow situation is carried out by considering the influence of pertinent parameters namely ferro-hydrodynamic interaction parameter, Maxwell parameter, suction/injection and viscous dissipation on flow velocity field, temperature field, friction factor and heat transfer rate are deliberated via graphs. The present numerical values are associated with those available previously in the open literature for Newtonian fluid case (γ 1 = 0) to check the validity of the solution. It is inferred that interaction of magneto-thermo-mechanical is to slow down the fluid motion. We also witnessed that by considering the Maxwell and ferrohydrodynamic parameter there is decrement in velocity field whereas opposite behavior is noted for temperature field.

The current analysis deals with radiative aspects of magnetohydrodynamic boundary layer flow with heat mass transfer features on electrically conductive Williamson nanofluid by a stretching surface. The impact of variable thickness and thermal conductivity characteristics in view of melting heat flow are examined. The mathematical formulation of Williamson nanofluid flow is based on boundary layer theory pioneered by Prandtl. The boundary layer nanofluid flow idea yields a constitutive flow laws of partial differential equations (PDEs) are made dimensionless and then reduce to ordinary nonlinear differential equations (ODEs) versus transformation technique. A built-in numerical algorithm bvp4c in Mathematica software is employed for nonlinear systems computation. Considerable features of dimensionless parameters are reviewed via graphical description. A comparison with another homotopic approach (HAM) as a limiting case and an excellent agreement perceived.

Abstract In this work, an analysis is presented for the unsteady axisymmetric flow of Oldroyd-B nanofluid generated by an impermeable stretching cylinder with heat and mass transport under the influence of heat generation/absorption, thermal radiation and first-order chemical reaction. Additionally, thermal and solutal performances of nanofluid are studied using an interpretation of the well-known Buongiorno's model, which helps us to determine the attractive characteristics of Brownian motion and thermophoretic diffusion. Firstly, the governing unsteady boundary layer equation's (PDEs) are established and then converted into highly non-linear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by using the suitable similarity transformations. For the governing non-linear ordinary differential equations, numerical integration in domain [0, ∞) is carried out using the BVP Midrich scheme in Maple software. For the velocity, temperature and concentration distributions, reliable results are prepared for different physical flow constraints. According to the results, for increasing values of Deborah numbers, the temperature and concentration distribution are higher in terms of relaxation time while these are decline in terms of retardation time. Moreover, thermal radiation and heat generation/absorption are increased the temperature distribution and corresponding boundary layer thickness. With previously stated numerical values, the acquired solutions have an excellent accuracy.
